(57) [Problem] To provide a torque control device for a hybrid vehicle capable of surely compensating for a drop in engine torque at the time of gear shifting by a motor and thereby eliminating a driver's discomfort. SOLUTION: At the time when the throttle opening starts decreasing prior to clutch disengagement, the motor torque realMT is adjusted so as to compensate for the shortage of engine torque tpsET caused by the decrease. Similarly, after the clutch is engaged, the motor torque realMT is controlled so as to compensate for the shortage of the engine torque tpsET until the increase in the throttle opening is completed. As a result, the drop in the engine torque tpsET is reliably compensated for by the motor torque realMT not only during the clutch disengagement but also before the clutch disengagement and after the clutch engagement, and the acceleration fluctuation of the vehicle due to the increase and decrease of the torque is prevented. |
